Mina Solak

Mina Solak is a Turkish pop singer, dancer, and actress. She is the first sub-vocalist and dancer of the girl group Manifest, formed by Hypers New Media in 2025. The group quickly became one of Turkey's most streamed acts, with their songs dominating charts and their concerts drawing massive crowds. In July 2026, Manifest performed three shows at Yenikapı Etkinlik Alanı in Istanbul, attracting a combined audience of 150,000 people.

Solak brings a decade of professional dance training to the group, having worked with major Turkish artists before her debut. She is recognized for her stage presence and is a fan favorite, often described as the most attractive member of the group. Her social media following, particularly on Instagram where she has over 728,000 followers, reflects her growing influence in the Turkish pop scene.

As of 2026, Solak continues to perform with Manifest, though the group has announced plans to relocate internationally with a global production company. Her career is marked by both commercial success and legal controversy surrounding the group's provocative performances. [edit]

Mina Solak was born on May 16, 2000, in Turkey. From a young age, she gravitated toward dance, and by her late teens she was performing professionally. For seven years, she worked as a dancer for some of Turkey's most prominent pop acts, including Zeynep Bastık and Edis. Her work with these artists gave her a deep understanding of stagecraft and performance, and she became a sought-after dancer in the industry.

In a 2026 revelation, it came to light that Solak had also danced for singer Dilan Çıtak several years before her rise to fame. This early career allowed her to build a network in the music business and hone the skills she would later bring to Manifest. Her dance background was not just a job; it was her training ground, teaching her the discipline and charisma that now define her performances.

Despite her success as a dancer, Solak aspired to be in the spotlight herself. When Hypers New Media announced auditions for a new girl group in 2025, she seized the opportunity. Her experience set her apart, and she was selected as one of the founding members of Manifest. [edit]

Mina Solak's breakthrough came in 2025 when she joined Manifest, a girl group formed by Hypers New Media. The group debuted with the single "Manifest Feat. Arem & Arman: Manifest," which quickly climbed the charts. Their popularity was immediate, and they became one of Turkey's most streamed acts, with songs like "Zehir" and "Hayır" dominating playlists.

The group's live performances became legendary. In July 2025, they headlined the Manifestival XL concert at Festival Park Yenikapı, drawing thousands. A year later, in July 2026, they performed three consecutive concerts at the same venue, attracting a total of 150,000 fans. These shows solidified their status as one of the country's biggest live acts.

However, their provocative stage shows also attracted legal trouble. In September 2025, the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office launched an investigation into the group for "indecent acts" and "exhibitionism" following a concert at Küçükçiftlik Park. On December 15, 2025, Solak and six other members were convicted of obscene behavior. Despite this, the group continued to perform and released new music, including the "Amatör" series in 2026.

In July 2026, Manifest announced they had signed with a global production company and would be relocating from Turkey to pursue an international career. This move marks a new chapter for Solak and the group. [edit]

Mina Solak is often described by fans as the most attractive member of Manifest, a perception fueled by her polished Instagram aesthetic and stage presence. Her public image blends her professional dance background with a modern pop star persona. She is seen as a hardworking performer who has paid her dues. However, the group's controversial performances have also cast a shadow, with legal battles making headlines. Solak's social media voice is professional yet engaging, and she interacts with fans on Instagram and TikTok. Her fandom, while not officially named, is active on platforms like Pinterest and Spotify, creating fan art and playlists dedicated to her. [edit]

Mina Solak currently holds no placement in the iFANN Global Top 1,000 rankings or any scope-specific list. The iFANN Global Fame Engine has evaluated her presence but found she does not yet secure a published ordinal position among the world's most famous figures. While her group Manifest dominates Turkish charts and fills stadiums with hundreds of thousands of fans, her individual global ranking remains unassigned by the system. This absence from the top tier reflects a career still defined by regional dominance rather than worldwide saturation. Her fanbase operates without a formal moniker, identifying primarily through the group's branding as "Manifest girls" rather than a unique collective name. Fans gather heavily on Instagram, where Mina maintains nearly 800,000 followers, and engage in discussions within niche communities like r/TurkishCelebsOnly. There are no documented fan-led campaigns, birthday billboards, or organized streaming drives specific to her personal brand. Instead, engagement centers on her polished social media aesthetic and the intense legal controversies surrounding her group. The audience follows her journey from a background dancer backing major stars to a central figure in Turkey's cultural debates, reacting to every court ruling and viral performance rumor with immediate online fervor.[edit]

Born on May 16, 2000, Mina Solak carries the Taurus traits of determination and practicality into her role as the first sub-vocalist and dancer for the girl group Manifest. Before her 2025 debut, she spent seven years backing major Turkish stars like Zeynep Bastık, Edis, and Dilan Çıtak, honing the technical precision that now defines her stage presence. Her digital footprint reveals a hands-on approach to promotion; her Instagram bio uniquely lists the handle @m6nifestgirls alongside a direct agency email, signaling her deep involvement in the band's operations.

A defining legend of her short career emerged in September 2025 when a government expansion of 'obscenity' investigations led to a travel ban and eventually prison sentences for all members by December. This legal turmoil transformed her from a rising pop star into a central figure in Turkey's cultural debates. Another iconic moment occurred in May 2026 when music icon Ajda Pekkan joined Manifest for a crossover performance of the song 'Hileli,' bridging generations of Turkish pop despite the surrounding controversy.

Folklore also surrounds the July 2026 concert at Manifestival XL, where a reported confrontation between Mina and a cameraman sparked immediate speculation and became a topic of intense local discussion. These events have cemented her reputation not just as a performer, but as a symbol of resistance and resilience within the industry.[edit]

Details about Mina Solak's family are not publicly documented. She has not shared information about her parents or siblings in interviews or on social media. Her focus has been on her career, and she maintains a private personal life. As of 2026, she is single and has no children. She keeps her home life out of the public eye, preferring to let her work speak for itself. [edit]

Mina Solak is associated with her fellow Manifest members, including Lidya Pınar, Esin Bahat, and Hilal Yelekçi. She has collaborated with the duo Arem & Arman on the group's debut single. In her dance career, she worked with Zeynep Bastık, Edis, and Dilan Çıtak. Her former romantic partner, Anıl Emre Daldal, has been a topic of media attention. [edit]

Mina Solak's most public relationship was with Anıl Emre Daldal. The couple was followed closely by Turkish media, and their split was announced via Daldal's Instagram in late August 2025. The exact start date of their relationship is not documented, but it ended in 2025. No other relationships have been reported, and as of 2026, Solak is reportedly single. [edit]

Per iFANN's editorial analysis, Mina Solak's net worth stands at $1 Million as of 2026. This figure represents her share of the earnings generated by Manifest, encompassing revenue from massive concert draws like the 150,000-person attendance at Yenikapı Etkinlik Alanı in July 2026. The estimate also accounts for streaming royalties and social media endorsements tied to her polished public persona. Individual financial records remain private, so this valuation reflects her specific contribution to the group's commercial success and her personal brand deals. As Manifest expands its reach internationally, iFANN expects this financial standing to grow significantly.[edit]
